Chapter 17: Gene Fusion

The three-day period came as scheduled.

On the day that Lindy left the infirmary, Zhang Chuming appeared in front of him again, and when he saw him, Lindy patted his head and suddenly remembered the question three days ago.

"By the way, I haven't given me the answers to the questions you asked three days ago, what do you say will happen in the process of gene fusion, what is it?"

When Zhang Chuming heard Lin Di's words, he thought to himself that you kid still have to bow your head and ask me for advice after all.

I wanted to lift the shelf and wait for Lindy to beg for herself.

But as soon as he thought that he should be a broad-minded and powerful master, there was no need to worry about a sick number, so he put down his shelf and said:

β€œ......”

"Teacher. ”

Lin Di saw Huang Fusheng from a distance, and trotted over, as if something had fallen behind him, but Lin Di didn't care.

Today's serum injection and gene fusion are big deals, and he has to put his whole heart and soul into this matter, and he doesn't have to worry about other things.

Huang Fusheng glanced behind Lin Di and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with Zhang Chuming?" ”

"I don't know. Lin Di shook his head and said, "The few times he has come, his face is pale, it should be anemia, just drink some brown sugar water." ”

"Well, let's go. ”

Huang Fusheng nodded and led Lin Di towards the "Contract Room".

Behind them, Zhang Chuming had just gotten up from the ground when he heard Lin Di's sentence "It should be anemia" and fell to the ground again.

Who brought me a cup of brown sugar water?

......

In the depths of the academy, there is a strange scientific research building, and in that building, a group of scientific researchers in white coats and leather gloves are busy running back and forth.

Seeing Lindy arrive, they were as if they had seen their prey, and they all showed excitement.

"Freshman?" a strange old man sat at the entrance to the hall.

"Well, freshman. Huang Fusheng nodded and handed Lindy's student card over.

The strange old man took the card, swiped it on a device in front of him, and raised his eyebrows: "It's only been a week since he was admitted to the hospital, why did he come to implant the ghast contract, isn't this nonsense??"

"There is something special about his situation, and this is the approval of the dean. Huang Fusheng handed over a document.

After the strange old man saw it, his eyes immediately lit up, "You mean that what in his body may be a mutant of the possessed ghast??"

"This is the result of the judgment of several senior teachers in the academy, of course, what the specific situation is, you still need to test. ”

"Well, come with me. The strange old man's attitude was still cold, but he finally didn't say anything.

Huang Fusheng doesn't care about his attitude, this group of Frankensteins are soaked in the laboratory all day long, they don't care about interpersonal relationships, getting along with people or anything, they only pursue truth and never-ending scientific research and technology.

"I signed this agreement first. ”

The strange old man took out a copy of the agreement and handed it to Lindy, who looked at it, and there were four big words of ghast contract written on it.

There are a lot of contents in the contract, which roughly means to tell the contract signer that the super serum you are going to inject next has a certain risk, which may cause all kinds of discomfort, and in the process of gene fusion, if you are afraid, you may be eaten by ghasts, etc......

In addition, there is another point that is specially marked in blue: after the genetic fusion is completed, the host and the parasitic ghast will have a pattern of two bodies and one life, that is, two individuals will enjoy each other's lifespan and pain.

This means that if the ghast originally lived for 50 years and the host lived for 80 years, the genetic fusion would result in a lifetime of (50+80)/2, or 65 years.

It is known that the average lifespan of ghasts is around 50 years (with a few exceptions), and the average lifespan of humans is 80 years, which means that most contractors will lose 15 years of lifespan once they have fused the genes of ghasts.

However, the people who came to sign the contract and implant the serum did not care about this result, because if the gene was fused, they could live at least sixty-five, and if they did not carry out gene fusion, it was very likely that they would not live to forty and be devoured by ghasts.

Picking up the pen, Lindy didn't hesitate to sign the agreement.

The strange old man retrieved the document and immediately arranged:

Then a crowd of people gathered around:

"Signs are normal. ”

"Normal blood pressure. ”

"The heartbeat and pulse are normal. ”

"The brain waves are normal. ”

"Inject the serum now!!"

A tube of translucent liquid was injected into the body, and in just about three minutes, Lindy suddenly felt his heart tremble, and the whole person turned dizzily, and a voice came from his ears:

"The genes are starting to fuse!!"

Lindy felt dizzy, and countless fragments of memory sliced through his skull like sharp knives and were shoehorned into his cranial neurons.

In the midst of the chaos of the scene, a familiar voice rang out.

"In the process of gene fusion, cells, senses, and memories will also be fused, so you will see some memories of the ghast in your body before, most of those memories are dark, negative, and violent, no matter what kind of memory, you must maintain a firm and fearless heart, otherwise, in the process of gene fusion, you will be eaten by the ghast!!"

It was the voice of the strange old man.

His voice seemed to have magical power, echoing in Lindy's consciousness over and over again, and it seemed to be able to hypnotize Lindy, making Lindy feel more and more sleepy, more and more sleepy.

......

"W-where is this?"

Lindy wakes up in a dark darkness with no scientific instruments or a lab coat in front of her, just a simple wooden hut and a girl playing in the dark.

The girl was only about four years old, holding a teddy bear in her hand, playing alone in the middle of the night, and next to her lay a frail middle-aged man, who had fallen asleep but had not stopped coughing.

[A child from a single-parent family, her father is so sick, this girl obviously does not have enough sense of security, she is only four years old, in the middle of the night, she is obviously anxious and restless, but in order not to affect her father's rest, she holds the doll alone and struggles, forcing her face to laugh.

Obviously there was fear of the night in her eyes, but her behavior was numbing the nerves called fear with repetitive movements and playing, this girl ......

The taste must be delicious!!】

A thought that seemed to be an inner monologue was transmitted to Lindy's consciousness, and then he saw a shadow slowly condense from the darkness.

The shadow flickered in the flickering candlelight, black as a curtain, condensing a slender hand to cover the girl's mouth.

The girl seemed frightened at that moment, but she couldn't make a sound, and could only watch as a black viscous liquid burrowed from her mouth and into her body.

The next day, it was dawn.

The little girl rubbed her eyes, and as if she had had a terrible dream, she saw her father wake up, and crawled over with joy and snuggled up to him.

In a flash, years passed.

The shadow had been lurking in the girl's body, and occasionally in the dead of night, it would manifest itself, reflecting a picture of teeth and claws on the wall.

Until one day, the girl seems to be different, she begins to pay attention to her shadow, begins to wake up anxiously in the middle of the night, begins to become autistic and withdrawn, and even occasionally gives birth to violent and self-harming emotions.

And it, thinking that the delicacy was ripe, that fear had taken root, stretched out its fangs and devoured the girl little by little, in the girl's increasingly frightened and traumatized heart.

It was devoured from the inside out, first devouring her soul little by little, and in her useless struggles, useless crying, little by little darkening eyes, it appeared in the shadow, and began to consume her blood and flesh.

【The taste is really delicious】

It laughed and made a contented, belching sound.

"No, let her go!!"

Jealous and hateful, Lindy, who has wanted to have a sister since she was a child, rushed forward and wanted to tear away the shadow that covered the girl.

......

"Mr. Zhang, you know, I don't like to drink, and the amount of alcohol is not good...... Really, don't let me drink anymore, I'm going to get drunk...... Well, just drink this one, it's really the last one. ”

Lindy, who rushed out, pounced into the air, the scene changed, and in the red lights, a scholar-like man, holding a wine glass, was left and right at the dinner.

It is a person who is not strong enough to drink, but after a round of pushing the cup and changing the lamp, he does not refuse to come, as long as there is wine, he will drink it on his head, which is extremely refreshing.

Out of the wine field.

The man vomited and was handed a tissue and a glass of water.

"Thank you. ”

"You've drunk too much and you'll need moderation later. ”

The voice was extremely beautiful, and the man looked back to see that it was a woman with bright makeup, wearing a short black gauze skirt, very beautiful in the red and green lights.

It's another dinner.

Someone tapped the man on the shoulder.

"Hey, it's you. ”

The man looked back and saw that it was the woman in the black dress, who already had a good impression in his heart, but because of this chance encounter, there was a little more affection in it.

"By the way, I don't know your name yet. ”

"Oh, you noble person forgets things, don't you know, I am an employee of your company, but I can see you every day. ”

"Oh, is it true?"

"Little employees, how dare you lie to the boss. The woman smiled lightly.

The so-called boss, who had always had a straight face, also became chatty and laughing, picked up a glass of red wine, shook it in front of his suit and tie, and touched a glass with the woman.

"It made you laugh last time, and I didn't even have time to say thank you before you left. The man said.

"I saw that you drank too much, and I was going to call a taxi for you, but when I came back, your old man was gone. ”

"Old man??" the man melancholy, "Am I really old??"

"Haha, you can't see I'm joking?"

"Your serious and funny appearance will inevitably make people take it seriously. ”

"Haha, then I said I like you, do you take it seriously?"

The man did not respond.

But it happened.

On the day of the reception, a slightly drunk man and a woman with the scent of red wine opened a room in the hotel, and on the spacious big bed, the two of them were full of energy.

The man's strength made the woman hearty, but in the midst of the intoxication, the woman faintly felt that something was wrong, and when the blurred eyes opened, she saw a shadow suspended behind the man, and under the white mask was a pair of crimson eyes.

"Ah~~"

The silence of the night was broken by a terrible scream.

The next day, a report shook the city, which had been silent for a long time.

The young boss has a tryst with a female employee late at night and kills the killer, is he an entrepreneurial pioneer or a well-dressed beast??
